Kenya Things To Do
Kenya: Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, elephant orphanage Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, elephant orphanage by sachara
At the south side of Nairobi National Park you can visit the elephant orphanage around midday. There were also a lot of schoolchildren around. Just at the moment we arrived the little baby elephants came out of the bushes for their feeding and mudbathing. There was also a baby rhino around. The baby elephant orphans were rescued in different parks all over the country. When they are old enough they go back to the wild in the Tsavo Park. [read more]

Padjelanta Nationalpark: Njunjes - Tarrekaise Njunjes - Tarrekaise by sim1
Friday, 21st July 2006, Bäcken Today we have 4 kilometres to 'catch up with' as we stopped a bit earlier yesterday. But on the other hand: we have all the time in the world, so no need to keep to a tight schedule but can just relax and enjoy our hike. It's good to know there is no pressure and we can adjust our schedule on a daily basis, adjusting to our form of the day, enthusiasm and of course the weather conditions. So relaxed we start to...

Two giants in the Travel World come together in beautiful harmony for the benefit of the travel community – and everyone else in the Universe!!!

We staffers at VT were jumping for joy as we recently welcomed the head honchos of our new business partner, TripAdvisor. The expertise of each site is so complimentary that how could we not be ecstatic with this marriage? We will remain two separate entities in friendly coopertition; but will be benefiting from everything that can enhance, but not take away, from the special qualities of each site. TripAdvisor loves the VT concept and community and wants it to remain essentially the same, except for the fact that we will now be able to implement projects that have been on hold (for a long, long time) in our pipeline.

Great things are coming – stay tuned, you won’t be disappointed!
